Special issue co-editors Jane Ward (janew@ucsb.edu) and Soma Chaudhuri (chaudh30@msu.edu)
In this special issue we welcome contributions from intersectional and interdisciplinary queer and feminist scholars whose writing reinterprets the stigma, violence and brutality surrounding the varied manifestations of global feminist power that fall under the banner of the witch (real, perceived; labelled; reclaimed). We welcome contributions from authors located in global South and North.

Those invited to submit full papers (7000 words or fewer, all inclusive. See link for details on manuscript preparation: Submit to Journal of Gender Studies (tandfonline.com)) will be notified by June 30, 2024 and will be required to submit a full paper by November 01, 2024 for external peer review.
